Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Federal Republic of Euphion is a massive, economically powerful nation, ruled by Leader with an even hand, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 2.14 billion enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The tiny, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Commerce, and Public Transport. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Euphion City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Tourism industries.

The government has cut taxes in the face of widespread tax evasion, elections have become procedural nightmares due to voters persistently rejecting candidates, the number of students attending university has reached a record high, and pristine wilderness has been trashed in the quest for cheaper oil. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is crippling, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Euphion's national animal is the black jaguar, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, its national religion is a major religion, and its currency is the Euphion Modaq.

Euphion is ranked 300th in Social Liberal Union and 117,499th in the world for Largest Public Sector, scoring 4 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
